Add custom report to standard "Shift & Attendance" sidebar (v16)

Frappe HR
1

Hi all,

I’m on Frappe v16 (frappe 16.23.1, hrms 16.10.0) and have built my own custom report. I’d like to add it to the left sidebar of the standard Shift & Attendance workspace, under the existing Reports section where the 4 standard reports already are.

The problem: when I open the Workspace Sidebar, it says “This is a standard sidebar and cannot be edited.”

What’s the recommended way to add a custom report link to a standard sidebar in v16? Is there a supported way to override or extend it, or do I have to recreate the whole sidebar as a custom one? Any pointers appreciated.

Ok i solved it
In v16 the “Edit Sidebar” option only shows up in developer mode — standard sidebars are read-only otherwise. If you’re self-hosted, open the backend container and edit sites/common_site_config.json, then add this line:

“developer_mode”: 1,

(mind the JSON commas). Save, run bench clear-cache, hard-refresh the browser — “Edit Sidebar” reappears.
